IIS 7.0 STIG Implementation

I am going to be running a IIS 7.0 STIG against a client system. The operating system is Windows Server 2008 R2. This will be my first time running a web server STIG against a machine.

Has anyone had any experience similar with this in the past? Any tips going into this being my first time? Would it be useful to use any scripts to make this more of a automated process? Again this is my first time implementing  a STIG on a system so any feedback is welcome

I appreciate it!
